CELEBRATING FATHERHOOD

CHALLENGING STEREOTYPES

There is a little known secret to success for travel with young kids: don’t do it. Don’t go anywhere. Just stay where it’s safe, where things have a place, and where routines thrive! DON’T EVER LEAVE THE HOUSE!!!

Ok now that I have that out there, let me say that going places with your kids is actually amazing. Trips with dad are easily the most che...

How can I start a Father's Day post without first pointing out what an amazing dad I've got! Everyone loves and respects this man because he is not only incredibly bright and charismatic, but because he is genuinely kind and wonderfully wise. I remember each Christmas getting to spend a Saturday with him going downtown and shopping for a new set of...

First off, I can't in good conscious write a blog post about Mother's day without wishing my mom and the moms in my life a very happy Mother's Day! My mom is an absolute hero of mine who is as generous and compassionate as she is fun and witty! All who know her love her; and for good reason. So happy happy Mother's Day Momma!

Every night when I go to bed I think about the food I'll get to eat the next day. Sometimes I get so excited that I won't fall asleep for an hour or two. Sometimes I sneak a peek into the fridge or pantry to see the food for myself just one last time before heading off to dreamland. If I'm ever tricked into hiking, I will talk the whole way up and...

Okay listen dudes (and dudettes), I'm no Martha Stewart. I could go into a long list of examples demonstrating how un-Martha I am, but I have a tiny bit of dignity left so I'll just leave it at that. What I have learned to do though is mastering the maximum impact with minimum effort. This isn't because I don't care to put in effort, nor is it beca...

Ho ho ho how are you doing with getting that perfect for the dad in your life? Let's be real, getting the dad in your life the perfect gift is a daunting task. It's like asking Cindy Lou Who to save Christmas from the Grinch without her braided pigtails or being able to sing "Where Are you Christmas"! So I got to work and spent WAY too much time on...

I love social media. It has allowed me to connect with amazing dads all over the world, to see the wonderful examples of putting your kids first, to celebrate fatherhood in ways I never could have without it. I reached out to you all and asked "What its he best part about being a dad?" The responses were so insightful and uplifting I wanted to memo...

Not all dads are going to end up on Project Runway. Okay I think in the nearly 1,205 seasons of Project Runway, only a few dads have actually been on the show. That could be wrong, so don't fact check me. This post isn't about ruling New York Fashion Week or landing on the cover of some fancy magazine that has a billion advertisements in it, but it...

At the end of the day, being a dad is one of the most important roles a man can have. Unless you're cast in the new Star Wars, that's a pretty important role too.

The Daily Dad focuses on celebrating fatherhood in all its beautiful forms: single dads, married dads, widowed dads, gay dads, new dads, and granddads all the while challenging stereotypes in our quest to be our very best for the ones who matter most!
